Baked French Fries
Who doesn't love French Fries? I found a French fry cutter tool in my mother-in-law's cupboard. She claims she had never seen it before. It screamed MAKE FRENCH FRIES NOW to me! Of course, I did just that. You can add endless kinds of salts, seasonings, Parmesan cheese to this recipe.

Crispy Oven Zucchini Fries
These Crispy Oven Zucchini Fries are a healthier version of zucchini fries. I have included a recipe for Apricot Dipping Sauce, which is a nod to the beloved Hamburger Hamlet restaurant chain in Los Angeles. They were famous for their Zucchini Zircles. You can also cut them into discs. I really hate deep-frying, so these are done in the oven, which is so much easier and less messy.

Artichoke Tapenade
Guest blogger Jessica from Beauty Marks .
Artichoke Tapenade - This is my Christmas gift to Leslie, because in case she hasn’t mentioned it lately, she loves artichokes. This recipe is about the easiest thing in the world to make in the food processor, and a total crowd-pleaser. I based this on a recipe from David Lebovitz, who got it from Smitten Kitchen, who got it from Mario Batali. So its provenance is solid, to say the least. I used the pitted Castelvetrano green olives currently available in a big jar at Costco.
